Peer Support

Peer to Peer Support

We know it can be a confusing and challenging time when you leave the armed forces and transition to civilian life. For some, you can feel isolated and alone.

To help former servicemen and women with mental health problems, we have a unique nationwide Peer Support Service. Led by veterans for veterans, it’s a chance to talk and share experiences, receive support and socialise with others who also served in the military.

It’s the first UK-wide service of its kind for veterans with mental health problems. Veterans have the chance to come along to small group meetings or meet our regional co-ordinators individually.

The map below shows the cities and towns where our Peer Support groups are located. To find out more about the service, please call our 24-hour helpline on 0800 138 1619.

As the saying goes, it’s good to talk.

Mental health problems can make even the simplest things seem hard to do but this service is a way for veterans to easily access support and advice.
